Patient Experience
Our 16-year-old son, an aspiring astrophysicist, began experiencing mysterious cognitive declines. Dr. Chattopadhyay discovered an extremely rare autoimmune encephalitis attacking his brain. Through plasmapheresis and immunotherapy, he restored our son's cognitive function just in time for his national science olympiad.
A 7-year-old refugee child from Ukraine with untreated epilepsy came under Dr. Chattopadhyay's care. He not only managed her complex seizure disorder but coordinated with translators and social workers to ensure her family understood the treatment plan in their native language.
When our 9-year-old developed sudden-onset obsessive-compulsive symptoms and movement disorders after a strep infection, Dr. Chattopadhyay was the first to recognize it as PANDAS. His targeted treatment completely resolved symptoms that multiple doctors had misdiagnosed as psychiatric issues.
Second opinion for a misdiagnosed cracked tooth: Dr. Chakraborty used transillumination to spot what others missed. Avoided unnecessary extraction thanks to his sharp eye.

When our 8-year-old developed sudden blindness from optic neuritis, Dr. Chattopadhyay immediately recognized it as the first sign of multiple sclerosis. His rapid treatment preserved her vision and he continues to manage her condition with cutting-edge disease-modifying therapies.
Our 15-year-old son with autism developed self-injurious behaviors that no one could control. Dr. Chattopadhyay's deep brain stimulation protocol, rarely used in pediatric cases, transformed his quality of life within weeks without sedating medications.
A 10-year-old chess prodigy began experiencing absence seizures during tournaments. Dr. Chattopadhyay designed a treatment plan that eliminated seizures while preserving his exceptional cognitive abilities, allowing him to continue competing at international levels.
Our newborn was diagnosed with tuberous sclerosis complex with multiple brain tumors. Dr. Chattopadhyay's expertise in mTOR inhibitor therapy has shrunk the tumors significantly, preventing developmental delays we were warned to expect.
A 13-year-old developed locked-in syndrome after a rare brainstem stroke. Through intensive neurorehabilitation and assistive technology arranged by Dr. Chattopadhyay, she has regained communication abilities and continues to make progress years after other doctors gave up hope.
Our 5-year-old with Rasmussen's encephalitis underwent hemispherectomy surgery coordinated by Dr. Chattopadhyay. His post-operative rehabilitation plan helped her brain rewire so effectively that she now has minimal functional deficits and attends regular school.
Dr. Ray performed emergency surgery on my 8-year-old daughter when her rare abdominal tumor ruptured. His calm demeanor during the midnight procedure and his gentle explanations to a terrified child made all the difference. We're forever grateful he was on call that night.
As a 72-year-old prostate cancer patient, I was terrified of surgery complications. Dr. Ray's innovative minimally invasive approach had me walking the same day and home in 48 hours. His follow-up calls to my home showed genuine care beyond hospital walls.
What impressed me most was Dr. Ray's collaborative approach during my complex pancreatic surgery. He personally coordinated with four different specialists, and his detailed hand-drawn diagrams helped me understand exactly how he would reconstruct my digestive system.
My routine screening revealed early-stage throat cancer that I never would have detected. Dr. Ray's thorough examination and immediate action likely saved my life. His ability to deliver difficult news with compassion while outlining clear next steps was remarkable.
After three failed surgeries elsewhere, Dr. Ray took on my recurrent sarcoma case. His innovative tissue reconstruction technique using abdominal wall mesh has given me back mobility I thought was lost forever. A true pioneer in surgical oncology.
Dr. Debnath managed my high-risk twin pregnancy with diabetes. His customized diet plan and weekly monitoring ensured both babies reached full term with perfect health.
